Our own member, Don Dickins, will give a presentation on the topic of Still Life Photography.
We are familiar with still life photographs of food, flowers, bottles of wine, shoes, jewellery, appliances and equipment as used in advertising. Still life photography, the depiction and arrangement, generally, of mainly inanimate objects, gives the photographer many challenges in the choice of the design elements used within the composition. Lighting, as always in photography, is part of that challenge. This presentation will help members prepare for the Competition Topic on Still Life on 17 June 2019.

Due to the prohibition on non-essential gatherings, and this group outing has been cancelled.
Due to our Christmas in July dinner being cancelled, we have been fortunate to secure Robin and Timothy Moon to present to us ‘Married to Photography’ – two very successful photographers who just happen to be married… or were they married and then became successful photographers? You can see their work on their websites and Wanderlust Imagery Facebook Page.
